Exceleram announced a new value-segment 8 GB DDR3 memory module, the E30200A. This no-frills module lacks any heatspreader, because it probably doesn't need it. It can operate at DDR3-1333 MHz (PC3-10700) speed with CAS latency of 9T, and DRAM voltage of 1.5V. More importantly, it is priced at US $49.99 a piece, making 16 GB (2x 8 GB) dual-channel possible at just $99.98. Compare that to the prices of 2x 8 GB kits available on Newegg.

“[The] target for us was to find a solution for our customers to obtain a new 8GB 1333MHz CL9 Memory Module with the price at only US$ 49.99. This price combined with the strong quality level as well as Exceleram always does, it’s a really tough target for us to reach. But now we have got the solution, the E30200A Memory Module,” said by Steffen Eisenstein, the Product Manager of Exceleram.

I would much rather just have a program that can load an entire folder into memory and have all the programs use that (like Superfetch, but I get to choose what to put in there), that way we could do that right now.

That's a ramdisk what you described right there.
For example, I use a program called "RamDisk Plus" to do just that. Only 768MB in size though. Mostly as browsers and other progs that use a cache. With these 8GB sticks I'd setup a 20-50GB ramdisk.
